< Song of Solomon 8 >

1 How I wish you were like a brother to me, one who nursed at my mother's breasts! Then if I met you on the street I could kiss you and no one would tell me off.
Nang koe kaie manu e sanutui karadip e, ka net e, ka thangroi patetlah o sak han ka ngai. Kai ni nang teh, alawilah kâhmo vaiteh, na paco nakunghai ayânaw ni kai teh na pathoe mahoeh.
2 Then I could take you home to my mother's house, where she used to teach me. I would give you spiced wine to drink from the juice of my pomegranate.
Anu e irakhan na kut dawk hoi na hrawi vaiteh na ceikhai han. Ahni ni hai kai hai na cangkhai han. Kai ni tâsi hoi kalawt e misurtui hoi taletui hah na nei sak han.
3 He supports my head with his left hand, and holds me close with his right.
Ahnie avoilah, e kut kaie ka lû rahim a hruek vaiteh, aranglae kut hoi na takawi seh.
4 Women of Jerusalem, swear to me that you won't disturb our love until the right time.
Oe Jerusalem canunaw, ka pahren e teh amahmawk a kâhlaw hoehroukrak na pâhlaw awh hoeh nahanelah, kahrawng e sayuk sakhinaw noe lahoi lawk na thui awh.
5 Who is this coming in from the wilderness holding her love close to her? Woman: I woke you up under the apple tree where your mother conceived you, and where she gave birth to you.
A pahren dawk kamngawi laihoi kahrawngum hoi ka tho e hateh api han namaw. Epal thingkung rahim nang teh na pâhlaw toe. Hote hmuen koe nange na manu ni nang teh na hâ toe. Hote hmuen koe nang na khe teh, hâ e lah na hruek toe.
6 Stamp my name as a seal on your heart, like a seal on your arm, for love is strong as death, passion as unyielding as the grave—its arrows flash like fire, a blazing flame of the Lord. (Sheol h7585)
Kai teh nange na lung dawkvah tacik na kin leih lah. Na kut dawk hai tacik na kin leih. Bangkongtetpawiteh, lungpatawnae teh, due e patetlah a thao. Dipmanae lungthin teh phuen kho patetlah a ru. Ahnie a hue teh, hmaisaan hoi hmaito patetlah ao. (Sheol h7585)
7 Floods of water cannot extinguish love; rivers cannot submerge it. If a man offered everything he owned in order to buy love he would be completely rejected.
Hatnavah, tuinaw ni lungpatawnae roum sak thai hoeh. Tuikalen ni hai pâyawt thai hoeh. Tami ni ama im kaawm hnopai pueng lungpatawnae lahoi poe han a ngai nakunghai puenghoi dudamnae doeh kâhmo ti.
8 We have a younger sister whose breasts are still small. What shall we do for our sister when someone asks to marry her?
Kaimouh koevah kanaw rae ka tawncanu buet touh ao rah. Ahni teh sanu co hoeh rah. Hote ka tawncanu a pacei awh navah, ahni hanelah bangtelamaw ka ti awh han.
9 If she is a wall, we will build a silver tower on it. But if she is a door, we will bar the way with cedar planks.
Ahni teh rapan lah awm pawiteh, ahni van ngunrapan ka sak han. Takhang lah awm pawiteh Sidar thing hoi ka kalup han.
10 I am a wall, and my breasts are like towers. So when he looks at me he's happy!
Kai teh kho rapan lah ka o. Kaie sanu hai imrasang patetlah o. Hatdawkvah, kai teh nang na hmalah hawinae ka sak.
11 Solomon had a vineyard at Baal-hamon which he leased to tenant farmers. Each of them paid him one thousand silver coins for the fruit it produced.
Baalhamon ram dawk takha buet touh ao. Hote misur takha teh, karingkungnaw koe ka hlai sak teh a paw a ca phu lah shekel thawng touh rip a sin awh.
12 But I own my vineyard, it is mine alone. One thousand silver coins are for you, Solomon, and two hundred for those who look after it.
Ka tawn e misur takha teh kahma lah ao. Oe Solomon, ngun shekel thong touh nama hanelah ao teh, karingkungnaw ni cumhni touh rip a la awh.
13 My darling, sitting there in the gardens with companions listening to you—please talk to me!
Takha thung kaawm e, nange tami na huikonaw ni nange na lawk teh a ngai awh. Kai hai na thaisak van awh haw.
14 Come quickly, my love! Be like a gazelle or a young deer on the mountains of spices.
Ka pahren nang kai koe karanglah tho leih. Hmuitui monnaw dawk kaawm e sayuk sakhicanaw patetlah na awm sak haw.
